I entered US by K1 visa, and now I had already got married which of course within the 90 days of requirement. And K1 visa is going to expire in 20 days, I am wondering whether it still matters?? The status of my status adjustment is I will go to capture the biometrics on Oct, 13th for I-485 & I-765.

Appreciate your advise!

AOS:

Receipt date: 09/27/2006

Transfer Notice date: 10/13/2006 (To CSC)

Biometrics taken date: 10/13/2006

Transfer Notice date: 04/30/2007(From CSC to NBC national benefits center)

Wish my green card will come soon!!!

Sounds like you already have your AOS in progress so you have nothing to worry about ...

The main thing is that you were married within the 90 days before your I-94 expires ...

K-1 VISA
08-05-06 - Married in Sycamore IL

AOS / EAD
08-24-06 - AOS/EAD mail to Chicago (Day 1)
11-06-06 - GC & Welcome Letter arrive in Mail (Day 75)

I-751
09-23-08 - Sent Package via USPS (Day 1)
01-02-09 - Received GC in mail (with wrong Resident Since date) (Day 101)

Once you have entered the USA on your K1 it is of very limited value to you.... as long as you got married within the 90 days then you can forget about the expiry date of your K1.....

Your AOS is what you need to be working on now....

Good Luck

If you married within the 90 day window (and you said you did) you are OK. Your next move was to apply for AP then which you are doing.

YMMV

As long as you don't leave the U.S. until your AOS is approved (unless you applied for AP), there is nothing to worry about.

The expiry date of the K-1 Visa is no longer relevant, as you are in "adjustment of status pending" status.

Good luck for a speedy approval.
